Nice original late war chinstrap marked RFNr. 0/0494/0008 in unissued condition!

Late war Tornister made from recycled materials. The second one in this pattern I have ever seen, the other one being in a friends collection. This late war Tornister is a nice example; fully made from recycled material. The fur is not made from one piece but made from square patches. The canvas used in producing this is all different coloured material with a nice detail being a blue checkered fabric is used in the lining. Nice and uncommon Tornister for any equipment collection!

Rare cased Breithaupt DRGM compass with its original leather case. One of the best compass of the era; this compass has a built in Kurvenmesser. Rare to find variant complete with its leather case. The case at some point got some markings which don’t belong but don’t detract from the rarity of this compass.

Textbook tropical cap eagle in unissued condition.

Original brown leather K98 sling featuring the textbook embossed checkered pattern in good used condition. The sling is nicely marked A. Lerch, Berlin on the frog.

US M1943 field trousers in good worn condition. Looks to be a good medium to large size.

Pre war 1939 dated Heer tabbed aluminium belt buckle. The belt buckle is made by H. Arld, Nurnberg in 1939 and is nicely marked on the leather tab. The buckle retains a nice amount of its original finish, especially on the back! Pre war belt buckle in overall good condition.

Uncommon and large US EGW (E.G. Waterman) fighting knife with original leather scabbard.

Excellent and rare to find MG spare bolt box for the Lafette 42. The box is made out of steel and has a few bits of paint still left on it. This is the 3 type spare bolt box which could contain both the MG34 as the MG42 bolt but has only been observed in use on the Lafette 42. These boxes are rare to find in good condition without being messed with post war!

Textbook German helmet chinstrap in good, close to mint condition, most likely unissued. The chinstrap is nicely marked ftb 44 which is a rather common maker for chinstraps but is still an unknown maker. Beautiful close to mint late war example which is hard to find as a spare!

Original issue US raincoat size medium. The jacket is in worn condition with wear and some light damage. Still displays nice on a mannequin. Nicely marked and dated Marathon Rubber Nov 14 1943.

Textbook pair of British ammo boots dated 1944 straight from the Woodwork in Saint–Lô, Normandy. These boots survived the war and was found with 5 helmets in a farm in Saint–Lô by myself, 5.6.2021.  Interesting detail is that the boots have period installed German hobnails and laces indicating they where probably worn by a German soldier. Still textbook British army boots in good worn condition.

Textbook original tan Waffen-SS sleeve eagle in BeVo construction in typical unissued and stone mint condition. The back of the sleeve eagle still retains its original RZM label. Stunning unissued example!
